So it should be "git bisect start CURRENT-BAD X GOOD1 GOOD2 ..." or "git bisect start X GOOD1 GOOD2 ..." instead of the above. > When you know that X was good then you can kill the build or test > processes and "git bisect reset" in the repository where you assumed > wrongly X was bad. You can then assume something else with "git bisect > start B G" and build and test in this repo again. Above also you must give all the good ones, so it is: "git bisect start B G1 G2..." > In the repo that told you X was good, then you need only to use "git > bisect good" or "git bisect bad" without building and testing to assume > something about the revision that should be built and tested.
